He made that boxing movie (w/Jon Favreau) completely unwatchable for me. Let's just say he had "annoying" totally nailed.

I liked Candy a lot also. He was never the crazy over the top comedian, but he anchored the plot and was great with subtle jokes. Summer Rental has some really great moments. Uncle Buck is funny (but Ackroyd steals a good bit of it).

I don't get Favreau. He strikes me as a bloated poor man's Jeremy Piven.

I hated him in Swingers. I just can't handle those "emotional car wreck" doofus characters, and he plays that part waaay to well (although, the phone bit is a classic).

The only movie I liked Favreau in was that one where he and Christian Slater try to cover up the accidental killing of the stripper at the bachelor party (Very Bad Things?). He's funny when he finally breaks down and loses it near the end of the flick.

I think you're confused. Is Ackroyd even in Uncle Buck?

Because I like to defend the Man, why would you need any of that stuff? You have the album already. This is the one-hit wonders that you don't have. Right Said Fred? Does anyone have teh album that came from? Are you friends with them? Would you want to be? But when you hit the spin class, you definitely want that in heavy rotation on your pink metallic iPod mini.

I thought he was good in Dodgeball. That movie was beyond silly -- but I laughed (I believe that I am almost certainly entirely correct that I am the most easily amused).

I think we need to have an FB "Easily-Amused-Off" (I'm sure you will correct my hyphens).

ETF horrific mistake. God. The humanity.

eata and just when I was feeling sort of perky because I noticed weather.com said "welcome back" in the corner -- it likes me, it really likes me.

I think the Violent Femmes are too busy being on 80's compilations. Unless you were looking for a rerelease of American Music.

I like American Music best. Bay-bee.

Was it me, or did Stiller's wife look exponentially more attractive in Dodgeball than in any of her other movies? She was fucking hot in that, and they could have made her hotter in the S&M gear...


Vonnegut has repeatedly mentioned that his sister, even in adulthood, never ceased to laugh when someone fell down unexpectedly. I never cease to laugh when a guy gets hit in the nuts with a wrench. Dumb movie. But I laughed.

I'm just glad I can finally get Kris Kross and Pantera on the same cd. Shame Dimbebag's dead; that could've been a great tour.

Is a line from a movie really a spoiler if it is in the television commercial for the movie that is aired hundreds and hundreds of times every day?

Just wondering.
